Answer 1

Answer:

During this time period, The harper's  works centered around her abolitionist efforts.

These works created general awareness among people in united states about the cruelty and suffering that African American experienced during slavery, which became the stepping foundation for American society to progress forward. “Two Offers”, is a short story based on domestication, morale, and Christian values. During a time when men ruled in both society and in the home, how interesting for a woman to be presented with two life-altering offers. This story explores what the unfamiliar territory ‘choice’ was for women then and depicts the very motives that lay at the helm of such a decision. This story finds cousins, Laura Lagrange and Janette Alston, weighing in on two apparent offers of marriage. Their commentary on these offers was more than mere opinions; it would become the bed in which each woman would eventually have to lie in, indefinitely. These perspectives were a page out of a century when many women felt domestication was more important than self-discovery.

“Talk as you will of woman's deep capacity for loving, of the strength of her affectional nature. I do not deny it; but will the mere possession of any human love, fully satisfy all the demands of her whole being?”

Answer 2

Answer:

         In publishing "The Two Offers," a story that has little to do with slavery or race, in an abolitionist newspaper, Frances Harper was able to create a more widespread awareness with the people of the United States around the cruel and difficult choices and lives that African-Americans had to live with during slavery. The short story itself presents a new narrative and perspective stories that typically would have featured only a man and his choices; rather than focusing on a man, however, the story focuses on two women who are cousins and the two choices that they are faced with--which are not really much of a choice at all when it comes down to it, because no matter what they choose, they will be stuck with that decision the rest of their lives.
